>From 700 BCE to CE 1300, thousands of scholars from many different >civilizations introduced mathematical ideas that established the foundations >of arithmetic, number theory, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry, as well as >the related sciences of astronomy and physics. Although we know very little >about specific individuals who made important mathematical discoveries in >Babylonia, Egypt, and China, historians in Greece, India, Arabia, and medieval >Italy preserved a more complete record, including the identities of some of >the innovators. "The Birth of Mathematics" profiles 10 individuals from these >four cultures during this time period as representatives of the numerous >scholars who contributed to the field of mathematics. http://depositfiles.com/ru/files/k93lcfyho http://extabit.com/file/29h9pjbfdof69 http://www.megaupload.com/?d=H4CZUGEC
